Functions for Various Matrix Operations

Description

Usage

Arguments

A

A matrix, with at least as many rows as columns.

nmax

The maximum number of rows to consider.

Details

Given a matrix A, with number of rows equal to or greater than the number of columns, return the combinations of row numbers that constitute invertible square matrices. Consider only the first nmax rows of the original matrix (to save time for large systems).
